The functions f(x) = (x - 1)^2 - 2 and g(x) = -(x - 2)^2 + 1 have been rewritten using the completing-the-square method. Apply your knowledge of functions in vertex form to determine if the vertex for each function is a minimum or a maximum and explain your reasoning.
Please help!! Thanks :)

no one knows lol

step-by-step explanation:

if x = 1, then the answer is 3.5

step by step solution :

step   1   :

1.1     4 = 22

(4)3 = (22)3 = 26

equation at the end of step   1   :

  ((23) • 26)2

step   2   :

equation at the end of step   2   :

  (23 • 26)2

step   3   :

final result :

  218
